Hello guys...i checked out your demo and it looks very nice!!! I know that your project is open source but i would like to know if i can use your cms as base to write my own CMS.?

I know that i can enter to the team to help the GXC be better but i dont want the compromise because i just work with php in my free time. My idea is to build my own cms using yours as base and when i finish my version 1.0 i will make it open and you can get anything you want from mine cms to yours, ok? Is there any problem for you?

It's weird bro. That guy is not in my team. Hm, github has been hacked these days. For backup installation guide, you can try with this : [link]

I wish I had checked back here earlier !!! Thanks for the quick reply, seriously.
Never the less, after about an hour and a half I figured it out.
I'm using the sample project content along with core found on your github
using common\data\data.sql found in the sample.

Now forgive me for being dumb here but I'm not sure what the default password is.
In the db - user I have {{password}} {{password_salt}}
I then went ahead to do a basic sha1($pass.$salt)

Unfortunately I couldn't find a way to change the username through the backend.
So then I created a new user, but couldn't find an option to change the role (defaults to Reporter).

Are these features that you want to add to the cms? Did I miss something?

I've decided to try and build my blog/personal website on top of GxC so in the next couple of weeks I'll be looking at your cms very carefully Also been wanting to start contributing to open source projects, I've never used/contributed in Git but have some experience managing a medium-sized project in my company with Mercurial and Bitbucket (3 members in our team).

Do you have any instructions on how one could contribute to your project? Something like the workflow wiki for Yii on Github?

Thank you bro! Ya, We spent about 7 months for the first version of this cms.

@Rajith R, @Jenengku dayat:

I have committed the new Menu Block in SAMPLE CODE, you can check it for getting menu items and render them in menu_block_output. I don't write recursive function here cause I think it's not necessary for now.

@jcsmesquita:

I implemented an image uploader besides ckeditor to embed to the content. You can check with the latest source.

A new guy in my team has done with gii for generating Blocks, Content Types and Layouts. He has finished Comment part also and I am going to merge it into master branch after review.

We still haven't time to write docs for this CMS. It's too busy here. If you guys have any question, please post it here, we will try to answer a.s.a.p and then I will re-collect the info for document.
